Mon, 02 Apr 2012 00:51:45 +0000http://blog.timesunion.com/bikers/?p=2785#comment-9836I took one of those Spyder test rides..
felt a lot like a snowmobile on tires,a lot zip
and we had 500 LBS on it(me and my stepson)
It wouldn’t have had any trouble keeping up with my VS-800-GL

Stepping “down” to the ST1300 was a great move for me. 200 pounds lighter is a huge difference, and it is a heck of a lot faster and much more fun to ride! I do want to try a Can Am sometime!

I do expect to go to a smaller ride when the weight gets to be too much to get in or out of a parking spot or garage. I see guys a lot younger than me needing help backing up.

Wed, 28 Mar 2012 20:42:09 +0000http://blog.timesunion.com/bikers/?p=2785#comment-9740I’m 50 and I’ve got an Ultra now. I’m hoping to be able to ride a full blown tourer like that until I’m at least 65..we’ll see. If the weight is too much for me, I’ll look at something like the Dyna
Switchback…if it’s still too much, I’ll go to a trike. I’ve test ridden the Can AM Spyders, they just don’t do anything for me.

Mon, 26 Mar 2012 21:56:27 +0000http://blog.timesunion.com/bikers/?p=2785#comment-9698Had the pleasure of meeting Ronnie on Thursday. Brought my brother over to pick up his new bike. We were outside while the service manager was going over somethings on the bike. I saw an elderly man messing with a bagger on the hill. He came walking down the hill during the conversation. My brother was asking if he could get his scheduled services done while he waits (seeing he lives over an hour away) The elderly man says “sure I’m Ronnie (shakes our hands) and says you won’t have to hang around here either. I’ll have a bike for ya. You can go for a ride and come back later. What a nice guy he was!!
